@Generations & Gender Programme

The main objective of this seminar is to present and discuss findings from research on Transition to Adulthood and the future needs young generations may face in terms of family formation and ageing. We also want to discuss to what extent policies are tackling the key issues identified by scholars. This event is kindly hosted by Alessia Mosca, Brando Benifei and Emilian Pavel, Members of the European Parliament.

The presentations will be followed by a panel debate involving researchers and stakeholders from policy and civil society. Confirmed participants:
